Don’t have a pharaoh currently, but it always seems like mark has a magic touch that turns the low mids into a resonant cavern of doom, like his pedals open up a secret chamber of frequencies in my amp. I just stop playing stuff in upper registers when I use his dirt boxes. Definitely true of my LSTR and Black Forest. Even the Fnord did it, and that thing was so particularly intense that I eventually sold it.
I don’t really know anything about your EQ question but I agree there’s something special about the tones he puts in those things.

Which gave me the idea to mod the input to not have a resistor for just a tad more gain. Excellent.

At first i thought he had put the PD patch on like a PIC, that would have been neat is it existed. I gues putting a PC in a hammond case works too

imagine finding out your son is your daughter & she's into noise music
